Pve/Fractal SHORTBOW?
Well you need a Brown and a Polar Bear and a longbow and a short bow and you need Apothecary’s armor and Settler’s weapons. 30/20/20/0/0 traits, but don’t take any major traits – they are overrated. You basically just spam everything, and for utilities you run Search and Rescue, Protect me and Guard. On your elite run Spirit Of Nature for amazing party support. If anyone goes down you’ve got it with loads of rezzes for all!
If you ever actually need to heal run heal as one, but I don’t think you will ever actually go that low. Have fun showing off your Dreamer!
Running “Search and Rescue” and Spirit of Nature means that you can instantly resurrect anybody in your party that goes down, who said Rangers were useless?
Yeah, I mean rangers best party support in game – you can instantly pick up party members and get back to the fight!
I don’t know why the trash ‘meta’ exists – I mean Guardians can’t rez anyone so why bring them. The only thing they are good for is dying, and even then warriors are better XD. I mean ranger brings all that support and amazing DPS – its so good you don’t even need to spec for it. Sooo IMBA.
There’s no need for sarcastic replies when someone actually wants advice.. come on guys.
I use this on my ranger for fractals.
You have sword ready for if you feel like you can comfortably melee something, and shortbow for the rest of the time.
Warhorn provides good group fury as well as you have spotter which is a great partywide DPS boost along with frost spirit.
Armor is Berserker but if you don’t feel like you can survive in this, swap in a few knights pieces.
Search & Rescue and the elite spirit can be slotted in if you’re in a group where the rest of the team goes down often.

You basically linked my build I told them to run but went with inferior traits, skills and armor. I fail to see why you think this build brings any benefit to the table when you have my super support build already. Yes, maybe this ‘build’ would superseded the Guardian meta, but in all honesty I think you are about as trash running that build as a Engineer is in dungeons (I mean do people play them?). I strongly object to you concerns with my build raised – as the skills chosen bring ample party support, an abundance of pet buffs (added damage) and a good trait setup. I don’t know why you chose to take a negative approach when communing your idea of a build (if you could even call it that) to me. I have no inclination on why you immediately took a negative stance and forced me into this reflexive defensive one, I take it it is because you are a bad ranger player and tried to take the hate out on me. I suggest you stand down before this escalates further.
+1 john dean love the build " WINNING " stomping power ftw

Haha! Awesome! I nominate you for best trolly reply of the year.
If you win, you get to make a video of you soloing Lupicus in that build.

i run with 20/20/5/25, some people put those 5 points into MM but i like the endurance regen, i use shortbow and sword/warhorn and is very good. I use knight armor to have some toughness but i do ok damage, very ok build plus you can change to spirits if needed since you have 25 in that traitline. The build could probably also work in wvw, i hate respecting everytime im step in wvw so i just go in and probably swap some weapons like maybe axe for zerg bag farming or greatsword.
